Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

The SAFER-YCL care bundle was adapted for Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) Crisis and Liaison teams, enhancing young people's transitions. Feasibility testing is needed to confirm its effectiveness in clinical practice.

Area Of Science

  • Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS)
  • Mental Health Care Delivery
  • Healthcare Innovations

Background

  • Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) Crisis and Liaison teams provide intensive, short-term support for young people in crisis.
  • Currently, there is no evidence-based model for the operation of these specialized mental health teams.
  • The SAFER care bundle, originally for hospital discharges, has been adapted for various mental health settings.

Purpose Of The Study

  • To adapt the SAFER-YMH care bundle for use in CAMHS Crisis and Liaison teams.
  • To gather stakeholder feedback on necessary modifications for these specific clinical services.
  • To develop an evidence-informed model for CAMHS Crisis and Liaison team operations.

Main Methods

  • Focus groups were conducted with healthcare professionals, young people, and parents/carers.
  • The SAFER care bundle was presented to stakeholders for discussion and feedback.
  • Normalisation Process Theory (NPT) framework was used to analyze transcripts, identifying implementation barriers and facilitators.

Main Results

  • Stakeholders suggested integrating the SAFER-YCL care bundle into electronic patient records for efficiency.
  • Automated information pulling and templated discharge letters/safety plans were proposed as aids.
  • The tool must avoid increasing staff documentation burden and allow flexible administration.

Conclusions

  • The SAFER-YCL care bundle has been successfully developed for CAMHS Crisis and Liaison services.
  • The adapted bundle shows potential to improve young people's transition experiences.
  • Further feasibility testing is essential to validate effectiveness and ensure successful clinical integration.

Properties of Transition Metals 02:58

29.8K

Transition metals are defined as those elements that have partially filled d orbitals. As shown in Figure 1, the d-block elements in groups 3–12 are transition elements. The f-block elements, also called inner transition metals (the lanthanides and actinides), also meet this criterion because the d orbital is partially occupied before the f orbitals.

Figure 1: Periodic Table. The transition metals are located in groups 3–11 of the periodic table. The inner transition metals are in the two...

Phase Transitions 02:31

23.2K

Whether solid, liquid, or gas, a substance's state depends on the order and arrangement of its particles (atoms, molecules, or ions). Particles in the solid pack closely together, generally in a pattern. The particles vibrate about their fixed positions but do not move or squeeze past their neighbors. In liquids, although the particles are closely spaced, they are randomly arranged. The position of the particles are not fixed—that is, they are free to move past their neighbors to...

Cooperative Allosteric Transitions 01:58

8.7K

Cooperative allosteric transitions can occur in multimeric proteins, where each subunit of the protein has its own ligand-binding site. When a ligand binds to any of these subunits, it triggers a conformational change that affects the binding sites in the other subunits; this can change the affinity of the other sites for their respective ligands. The ability of the protein to change the shape of its binding site is attributed to the presence of a mix of flexible and stable segments in the...

Phase Transitions: Vaporization and Condensation 02:39

21.3K

The physical form of a substance changes on changing its temperature. For example, raising the temperature of a liquid causes the liquid to vaporize (convert into vapor). The process is called vaporization—a surface phenomenon. Vaporization occurs when the thermal motion of the molecules overcome the intermolecular forces, and the molecules (at the surface) escape into the gaseous state. When a liquid vaporizes in a closed container, gas molecules cannot escape. As these gas phase molecules...

Phase Transitions: Sublimation and Deposition 02:33

20.2K

Some solids can transition directly into the gaseous state, bypassing the liquid state, via a process known as sublimation. At room temperature and standard pressure, a piece of dry ice (solid CO2) sublimes, appearing to gradually disappear without ever forming any liquid. Snow and ice sublimate at temperatures below the melting point of water, a slow process that may be accelerated by winds and the reduced atmospheric pressures at high altitudes. When solid iodine is warmed, the solid sublimes...

Phase Transitions: Melting and Freezing 02:39

15.2K

Heating a crystalline solid increases the average energy of its atoms, molecules, or ions, and the solid gets hotter. At some point, the added energy becomes large enough to partially overcome the forces holding the molecules or ions of the solid in their fixed positions, and the solid begins the process of transitioning to the liquid state or melting. At this point, the temperature of the solid stops rising, despite the continual input of heat, and it remains constant until all of the solid is...
